Post Op Day 21, mind

12-second video: Today. October 6, 2023…8:00 AM.
High Mountain Lake
Jody Maberry texted this photo yesterday. That’s me lower right. Longest hike in 50 years of visits…15 miles. Wondering if future visits will be one-eye or two-eye sighted. Btw, that’s the Continental Divide.

You will excel at world-class customer service when you excel at being a world-class customer.

In sharing the Disney Compass this morning to the office manager, it dawned on me…

When you not only know your customer but understand them, you tee up “surprise and delight”.

Surprise and delight is the bull’s-eye for creating “wow“!

Anyone can create it for anyone.

Why the customer service world hasn’t embedded this as a non-negotiable is beyond my comprehension.

Post Op Day 20, mind

Apple Watch message from Apple
Never owned a new car. Not to save money although you do. And yet i’m always wanting THE most excellent work tool. Not trying to spend frivolously although it may seem so. Ps. The green medical bracelet comes off in mid-November.

dad

The middle tree is too high for the landscape company’s ladder to reach.

You only get better at anything through practice. BFO, eh?

dad

Practiced surrendering yesterday. Big time. Surrendering is growth mindset.

Having high standards and being a known loyal customer to the owner doesn’t always translate to the staff.

One of my great opportunities is being supremely patient in these situations.

Got a C-grade until 10am (the first hour).

Got to practice (on my own, alone) for a couple hours.

Aced it after 2pm.

Kinda a longish story so stopping here.
